MATT

I’ve been doing hair since I can remember. Whether it was styling my baby sister’s hair or a friend’s before going out, it seems I’ve always had product on my hands.

I began my training in Traverse City, Michigan at 18 years old as an apprentice with the owner of a salon. While most of my time at the salon was spent washing towels and booking appointments, I watched my mentor’s closely, spending all of my free time mastering the skills I picked up during the week. Realizing that hair was a true passion of mine I moved to Grand Rapids, Michigan to attend, Chic University of Cosmetology in March of 2000. While I was in school I frequently visited my brother in Chicago and after graduating I too made Chicago my home in February of 2002.

Through a comprehensive consultation, I work with my clients to create a style that we both love. I don’t believe in merely satisfying a client, I want to excite them. I want them excited to spend time with me; I want them excited to strut out of the salon looking fabulous and I want them excited about their return visit. I want them to think of the salon as an extension of their living room. I love working in a boutique-esque salon where clients can feel completely comfortable even if they decided to wear their sweats and no makeup. The Colour Room is a place for you to just come and chill out and get some great hair!

I have worked as a stylist in both print and film as well as various live events and look forward to future opportunities that I may have in those areas. I continuously attend classes and shows in Chicago, New York and Las Vegas to keep my skills abreast of the latest fashions and trends.

Whether you are a current, past or future client I look forward to seeing you soon.
